After the Time piece, what do you do for an encore?
Not much appears to be going on. Living Legends came and went without fanfare ... what's the next event? Super Bowl - Sunday February 11th? Oscar's - March 10th? In the mean time, some things are still rolling along in various starts and stops like Samantha's law suit. Or tax season is about to begin in the US. The IRS just never goes away. Nor do bills (utility, cable, mortgage, food, cars, security, landscape people, cleaning people, koi person and so on). There's always another one. Elsewhere others just continue to glide forward without a real hint of being disrupted by some news out of California. That would be the new King and Queen or the Prince/Princess of Wales. Yes there are health risks which seemed to come out of nowhere. But. The difference is that these people are calmly living their lives with minimal drama.
Comments
yes, same for me, exactly about Lainey.
Lainey finally addressed Catherine's gorgeousity, but of course was critical of her hair, etc, etc, etc.
It's funny because she had nothing to say about that sequined flour sack that her hefty idol, the TBW was wearing in public last weekend, nor about the mess of hair she thought was a good idea to wear in public, on stage even.

I just saw River's video! I actually cheered at several points.
Normally, I don't look forward to the jealous retaliation from Harry and * . . . but this time I hope they strike back in some way, because it will be as impotent as it will be hilarious.
It's funny how Lainey can rinse away years of hard core fan girling over her Number 1, Gwyneth Paltrow while disparaging Janet Jackson no less as "ghetto," which we all know is a code for racist. I wonder what she makes of the Black Texas women who attacked the Asian waitress at Carmines? I bet she had nothing (in public) to say about that!
Not to mention how much Lainey hated when pregnant celebs did the belly cupping until her mistress, TBW, came along.

This is not a price that is out of reach for the middle class; I paid more than that for a generator (grin) this weekend. OTOH, I expect that generator to be used more than once. If I paid that much for a dress, I'd be wearing it to church, to the grocery store, to fill up my truck with gas just so I could feel that I got my money's worth out of it! Since I'm a retirement-age grandmother, yeah, slinky gowns are not gonna happen.
Off Topic: My gracious, I turned on TV Canarias this morning because volcano watchers have told me that I needed to see it at dawn. It is terrible in its beauty. My heart bleeds for those whose homes and livelihoods have been destroyed.
I read that someone did shout out like that on the occasion of the NYC baby shower,calling her `the Charlatan Duchess', and was arrested for her pains - but don't recall ever reading about her fate, whether she was released without charge or taken to court.
Thanks. I did think it might be at the baby shower. It would be interesting to know what happened to that woman.

Not happy about it. I wish he would have enough sense to have turned down that invitation.
Also, that's a lot of flying back and forth from the West Coast for a man who's awfully worried about the air travel the rest of us might do.
I love your style wearing the gold gown to church, the grocery store, and filling up your truck with gas.
You rock! Love it.
@Mel: Hairy's handing out military medals? You mean like the medals he had plastered on his suit at the LA Cemetery? I think they'd be medals for boozing, smoking cigs, smoking weed, being an ass, being cheap, those kinds of medals. And, one that says "dunce."
Variety’s Women’s Impact Report 2021. Ugh.😒
I won't post the link because the article is very long. Google Variety Magazine.
Lots of women on the list.
Then, like the rest of you, I realized that she spent thousands LESS on her clothes/jewelry than TBW.
Yes, just when I thought it couldn't get any better, I learned that she spent so much less to look so much better than * did!
Today I also saw an old photo from when Diana attended a different James Bond premiere. It reminded me that the last side-by-side comparison I've seen featuring * showed her copying Michelle Obama. Apparently, her monochrome burgundy ensemble was a rip-off of something Michelle had worn before. I think this is signalling a new "era" for her.
Some time ago, @Hikari shared According2Taz's video about * having no core identity and being a poser all the time. We saw her global humanitarian act, her "hot" girlfriend act, her overwhelmed royal act, and her California girl act -- and each time, she wanted us to think that what we were seeing was finally her real self. (I'll confess that the last one took me in for a while.) With the turtlenecks, the pantsuits and the bow-legged power poses, I think she has debuted her latest "self." The next year and a half ought to be a hoot!
Meanwhile, Catherine is being an authentic self we have all recognized for years.
Also, that's a lot of flying back and forth from the West Coast for a man who's awfully worried about the air travel the rest of us might do.
I don't think he cares about consistency and integrity at all, but he (or at least *) might care about air travel expenses piling up. If * manages to grift her way into politics, do you think they'll move to the eastern coast of the US?
(If nothing else, it would complete *'s latest pose!)
Lack of Soap and Gamy
Madam and her sweaty pits
Along with dirty Harry’s habits
The acrid stench is overpowering
Due to their fear of soap,
and showering
Reeking of booze, and stale cigs
Too immersed in scraping barrels,
for gigs
Sadly, he wasn't court-martialled, and had his sword broken, but the effect's the same.

It's true that narcissists are completely empty within - they cobble together a personality/identity by stealing from other people - in most cases, it's just not as obvious as it is with TBW.
I had a look at Variety magazine. The blurb about TBW is the most succint of all and while the blurb about all other women mentioned had some additional info or question, there is none for TBW. The blurb doesn't say much and is very bland. Looks like she was put in there for the sake of it.
'The former actor and her husband, the duke of Sussex (aka the U.K.’s Prince Harry) are forging a ground-breaking path by leaving royal life and launching a foundation and two production companies with an aim to drive systemic cultural change for the better. Archewell has inked deals with Spotify and Netflix, with podcasts and series such as “The Heart of Invictus” and the animated “Pearl.” And oh yes, the Oprah Winfrey interview that shook the world.'
The stench - in more ways than one - emanating from Montecito must be overpowering 🤢
Thanks for doing that! I just didn't have the stomach for more faux praise to someone who didn't earn it😡. Wonder how much they paid for the mention?
I'm wondering if she'll turn up to something in one of those horrible `naked dresses'?
Hold that thought!!!
More a case of `What sights you see when you haven't got your gun!', an expression often used by my mother, born well before the 1st World War. It seems to refer to 19th century `naturalists' in search of rare specimens - unless they shot them and brought the skin back as proof, nobody would believe them.
Some of TBW's outfits we've seen recently almost come into that category, even though she was muffled up.
according to harrymarkle, she is wearing body padding and breast padding to make her look bigger than she is, to prove that she did indeed give birth. She says that TBW flicked her coat open at the Harlem school to the photographers, same as when she was flicking her coat with the moonbump back in Blighty. Ashli from the Danja Zone is also convinced that some of that bulk is also padding.
I personally think that the TBW came by it by comfort eating. But she didn't seem so big in her birthday video, especially wrt the size of her fingers, hands and arms.
There was also a pic later in the day in the red outfit where the girls looked like a much more normal size. Made me wonder if she was inflating/deflating the way she did with the bump.
Her thighs looked huge in the red outfit, versus the white dress. It occurred to me that she was wearing a fat suit.
I kinda thought the baby doll dress was a little obscene. Looked like an old man involved with a 12 year old. Not the vibe I would think H would want to present in light of everything with PA. Or Mm, since she'd early on how offended she was by PA.
@SwampWoman - I should have put a warning `Not suitable for those of a nervous disposition' though I doubt if you consider yourself as such!
It isn't my disposition, it's my STOMACH! I didn't want it rebelling and rejecting the caffeine. If I want a visual of anybody walking around naked, I vote for Jason Momoa.
As I remember, someone posted that a source reported back that their source, close to the family, said something about don't even ask me about that bloody woman.
according to harrymarkle, she is wearing body padding and breast padding to make her look bigger than she is, to prove that she did indeed give birth.

Ha ha! The thought had occurred to me that she might be devious enough to do that.
/Say, whatever happened to lil'whatsisname, Harry's son?
I bet that burns her up LOL!
I'd agree about the fat suit - shades of Dawn French & Jennifer Saunders in their (Dirty) Fat Old Men sketches:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THr2_eyPsug
Oh gawd. Those are some gross blokes. Ha ha.
____
A fat suit could work fully clothed but what about her legs? How would she pull that off?
Padding around the middle, yes, full fat suit no.
Wooten says:
"Kate, royal insiders insist, would never have had the confidence to make such a high-stakes appearance BM (that's Before Meghan)". LOL.
Not so sure I agree but in any event, the Duchess of Cambridge should get all the glory. She's a Goddess right now.
Well played Kate, well played...
That comes off as a really backhanded compliment and I don't know that I would place that from within the Palace sources.
AKA sour grapes, maybe? eh?
Now that you mention it, I re-read it and yeah it does. I'm not really in agreement with his thought there.
I really dislike how people have painted her narrative as one of the meek and mild, shy girl next door. Maybe she does have a touch of that which is endearing, but she's matured into a really regal, classy woman and it's about time she gets credit for it.
I imaging she was beaming on Bond night because she rocked it in front of the whole world and perhaps finally the comparison to the wet river rat sister-in-law will begin to cease.
anyone who goes through 3 pregnancies suffering from hyperemis gravadurum to the point of being hospitalised like Catherine, is not meek and mild in any sense of the word. That is one tough lady. She has all of my admiration for going through that, and looking good in the process (which is remarkable for any pregnancy in itself). Not a hair out of place, not a sour look on her face, all smiles and sweetness. Amazing!
Also, remember how Pippa unintentionally stole the limelight at Catherine's wedding, and yet, there was no fall out between the sisters. Can you imagine what would have happened at Meghan's wedding if something similar had happened?
This woman, Catherine has some very sterling qualities.

I agree with all of this! Well said.
The Duchess of Cambridge reminds me of someone; Her Majesty the Queen.
Wills did exceptionally well. His picker is not broken :D
1) Catherine didnt have a reason to shine such a big spotlight on herself before. She's a team player on a team where she respected the other members.
2) it is a great slam at 6s wife - see you may not like this but your pushing, your planted pr, your rumors about rose, all of this gave rise to what you saw at the Bond premiere. You 6s wife only have yourself to blame.
She's a team player on a team where she respected the other members.
____
Excellent point!
In some cases, in my experience, sometimes not ALL members of a team are respectable but we still have to show some level of respect (as a member) nevertheless.
Not saying this is DOC, just saying in general life.
In her case she has done magnificently in dealing with that mess Spare and Snare (one of Lady C's viewer's, which cracked me up when I watched it yesterday) caused and are still causing by stirring the shit pot.
Re: BM -- "Before *"
I agree that it would never have come from Palace sources. The only people thinking of * after Catherine's golden goddess moment were those feeling some Schadenfreude over what * must have been feeling. The idea that * had any influence over Catherine at all was a *-spun narrative from the beginning.
I agree with you that she has put on some weight.
I just don't think she has put on as much weight as what she was trying to show with the red suit and the tan outfit. I kind of suspect she was wearing some sort of padding around the abdomen and clearly an pretty padded bra with those two outfits. She looked thinner in the white dress than she did in her other outfits.
I really suspect that she was baiting people to comment about her weight, so she could prove how mean everyone is to her.
Gotta admit that the tan blouse pinned shut was something. So not classy.
Also, remember how Pippa unintentionally stole the limelight at Catherine's wedding, and yet, there was no fall out between the sisters. Can you imagine what would have happened at Meghan's wedding if something similar had happened?
Well, Jessica tried her best! I smirked when I saw the lengths she went through to emphasize her backside. (I recall people saying things about Pippa's bottom after the 2011 wedding, despite her own modest dress. I found it very tasteless commentary and think it was the freshness and sweetness of her entire look that stole the show. But of course Jessica would pick isolated body parts to fetishize in the pursuit of "beauty.")
I'm going to start observing wedding parties to see if we can create a new adage: "Every bride deserves her maid of honor."
Her figure in the gala white dress and a wife beater dress look to be similar to me. The tan outfit and the red outfit looked like they were outliers, not consistent with what we've seen recently, or ever.
I agree that it would never have come from Palace sources
---
The article said royal insiders.
That could be many people. Lady C is a royal insider according to her. I don't always believe everything she says but most of the time I think her sources are very reliable. I don't know much about Dan Wooten but who knows who he is getting his tea from?
I do think it's logical to assume William and Kate are extremely discreet and their team is extremely loyal.
"Kate, royal insiders insist, would never have had the confidence to make such a high-stakes appearance BM (that's Before Meghan)".
I really suspect that she was baiting people to comment about her weight, so she could prove how mean everyone is to her.
Interesting theory! But are there enough people saying that for her sneaky plan to have worked?
I only occasionally dip into Harkle news these days, but as far as I can tell, no one is fat shaming her at all. Comments on her size tend to be speculation on whether she's padding herself to fake weight gain . . . which ironically means we all think she's slimmer than she lets on.
Even River, who believes that * has put on baby weight that makes her very self-conscious, is defending her on this point and saying that * can't take a bad photo.
I've heard of backhanded compliments. For a narc, is this a backhanded insult? We spoiled her plan to be a magnet for insults by inadvertently complimenting her?
I remain skeptical of the "royal insiders," not just for the stated reason, but also because of what others here have observed about Catherine's behavior as a team player. When she's on engagements with the Queen, for instance, she wears a dull color so that she fades into the background a bit while Her Majesty pops. But given her eye for detail, her tastes, and her "signal dressing," I think she could have done something like her gold dress look a long time ago. It just would have been poor timing.
My own bet is that her new Queen-in-Waiting look at the premiere is something she was given the green light to do very recently. Prince Philip's passing highlighted the Queen's mortality, put more of the spotlight on Prince Charles, and reminded us all (consciously or unconsciously) that we may have a new Princess of Wales soon. This is a sneak peek, given at a very appropriate time, and I'm here for it!
Having said all that, * blew through the BRF like a hurricane of mustard gas. I'd be naive to say she didn't change the way Catherine thought of some things. There's a grain of truth in what the "royal insiders" said. But I'm tired of ' getting to share credit when Catherine shines, especially when these plans were probably laid long before * caught her ginger prize.

Very true. We have all seen DOC mature as a person and she has always been keen to follow the royal protocols which are in place for a reason. I believe she is in full knowledge of what she will be someday and does her job impeccably. Unlike the mess we saw awhile back.
I also think you are on the right track that DOC has been given a green light to now begin to step into the role that awaits her. Good!
As she grows in stature on a global stage, the mess, "hurricane of mustard gas, (:D) will begin to diminish. Especially since TBWs narcissism won't allow her to scale back on her idiotic stunts. The entire world is onto her buffoonery.
Remember just two and a half years ago when she still had some shine on her and we were all waiting for the Kraken? That Kraken is now. We are seeing the Kraken. Back then we couldn't read, watch, hear, what we are now. It's amazing how quickly TBW has dismantled herself. It will continue is my prediction. She's on a downward spiral.
As frustrating as it is, the BRF must have a reason why they still are allowed to misuse the titles. Perhaps the best revenge is the presenting of DOC as the future Queen Consort at least subliminally for now.
as for 6s wife. interesting theory. maybe some of the weight gain is to keep harry at home. people are mean to me. you can’t divorce me. also i agree she didn’t look as heavy at least on what we saw in the 40th bday video. then again when was that filmed? on our about her 40th or a good month or two before.
i’m still going with pot munchies or booze.
She could have had so much more had she been a team player and stayed.
That writer whoever he was didn’t know his stuff. Anyone other than royalty is considered a Commoner, that therefore included e.g The Queen Mother and Diana etc. Both born into the aristocracy but still Commoners. 🤗

I realise I didn't express myself properly 🙄 and apologise for the confusion. The comment was in a reader's letter to the editor, not from a journalist. I should have explained.
But then she was willing to learn and humble and intelligent enough to know not to eclipse William.
----
Excellent point! I think she loves him enough as William the man to allow herself to stay in the back ground for William the King to be.
What a shame Harry couldn't wife up a woman like her. But then with the rumors out there of his misogynistic behaviors (which I think are true), some nice woman dodged a bullet and he deserves just what he has in the wife department.
Karma.
Say, will she be shilling for wrinkle removal products? Hair care products?
I know! How about wart removal products? "I have had to kiss a LOT of toads before I found my Prince Charming!" (Pan camera over to croaking toad with a crown sitting on a chair inscribed "Harry".) "Sadly, working with industrial quantities of toads can cause warts, some in places we don't care to mention. I have found that Guthy-Renker has the most AMAZING wart removal cream! It is so good, they guarantee that it will remove traces of every toad that you have had to 'kiss' along the way."

No apology necessary! 😁It makes perfect sense now.🤗
Ok. Thanks for clarifying.
You lost me at "fat suit".
Logically, I don't think she was wearing a fat suit. The many photos don't support that.
Padding around the middle and bosom area perhaps, but fat suit is a stretch. IMO.
As I recall, the breasts go back to normal first, but the hips and stomach stick around for a while, years possibly?
I would think she could have brought said infant with her so she can nurse.
My boobs got huge when pregnant, stayed huge after giving birth. I waited, hoping for them to go back to my 34B but nope. I've been Dolly Parton to this day.
Not fun anymore but I'm thankful they are healthy if a bit looking like limbs these days😂
Re: Catherine being humble and not eclipsing Prince William
Well, she certainly eclipsed him at the Bond premiere . . . but in a wonderfully appropriate way. She was an incredible beauty that night and William couldn't have been prouder of her. He was very, very happy to let her shine. He knew it didn't diminish him. Heck, it made him look a lot sexier than he has in a while! (Well, in my opinion!)
Contrast that to *, who has to push her way in front of her husband, thinking that that is what will make her shine. It only makes her look like a hustler and him like a buffoon. If Catherine is gold, then * is clay.
And since I brought up William looking sexy next to his wife, I have to share a joke from River. For those who didn't see River's video about Harry and * on the TIME photo spread, there was a hilarious comment about Harry's appearance. I paraphrase: "Harry even looks sexy . . . which is how you know the photos aren't real!"
PS -- I know that Prince Charles attracts criticism for being jealous of Diana's star power, but perhaps there was also an edge of meanness in it that we didn't see. She knew he was shy, unpopular and not half as charming as she was, and she would have been immature enough to use that "to even scores" in their marriage. While * isn't a hundredth of what Diana was, she also uses public appearances to belittle her husband. She doesn't see herself as a helper or a supporter, but as the rightful star. But she's also a selfish star who would never share what little shine she has with anyone. And that's why, after a while, she's incredibly boring to look at. But people will be looking at Catherine's (and Camilla's) photos from this Bond premiere for decades to come.
Love Rivers joke. Harry is about as sexy as a wet mop.
Wills on the other hand, humma mumma. 😍 Sorry, he's the future King but I've have always thought he's hot.
Yes, he looked very proud of his wife. It says a lot about his character. They make each other look amazing. Gorgeous couple!
(It must have seemed a glamorous association at the time, but now all I can think of is * trying to stand next to these women and being revealed as less than mediocre.)
Like @SwampWoman, I'm racking my brains about why a beauty company would want her. And I'm not even being snarky this time! Which demographic are they hoping to target? And if it's "women of color," don't they know how many of us she has already turned off? Isn't there someone there doing the necessary market research?
And even her most sugary fans don't really associate her with glowing skin or healthy hair. Even if they do think she's pretty, it's just not her brand. And despite her vanity, she hasn't been trying to make it her brand. Her new focus is power and politics. So I don't really see where this Guthy-Renker thing is going. Does anyone have any theories?
Yes I have a theory about her brand of beauty products. Is it possible that she would source the brand out to someone who does have believability in the beauty industry who needs money, and just slap her name and face on the products? This way she can draw in the revenues to use to build her political career (choke, choke. That will never fly here).
I nominate Lena Dunham...the new hubs will drain her bank account, she can pitch to the woke, organic, inclusive crowd. She will revel in the connection of a "duchess", small d...a win win.
Of course, I'm exaggerating but I would not put it past TBW to delegate such a business endeavor.
Goopy would laugh in her face.
does Adele allow Harry to pass out on her couch and did he piss himself once? A lot of people seem to think so.
https://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2021/09/blind-items-revealed-1_30.html#disqus_thread
interesting on the Adele blind. Do we think the wife called that one in to embarrass him
If she did plant that story, then we know who the real alcoholic who pisses herself is. Narcissists love accusing other people of their own misdeeds.
For me, the really damning thing is not that it might be true, but that so many people find it plausible. In the latter case, it doesn't even matter whether it's true or not. Harry's brand has sunk that low. Imagine going from a royal lifestyle and the status of one of the most eligible bachelors in the world to a stinky alcoholic who disgusts the only friends left standing by him.
When you lose to a golden goddess, you need to take someone down
The really sad thing is that if she had been a decent human being who could be grateful for her immense good luck and willing to do well by her adopted country, she could have glittered at the Bond premiere, too. She has no one to blame but herself.
Is it possible that she would source the brand out to someone who does have believability in the beauty industry who needs money, and just slap her name and face on the products?
This scenario would be super credible if she also asked the model with believability to donate her time and image, in exchange for "exposure" and an association with "royalty"! Wasn't there a story about her trying to get brands to donate to a baby clothes subscription box service, while she kept all the profits?
If I were Guthy-Renker, though, I'd soon wonder what I needed * for. Better to cut out the middleman and then split her share between us and the model!
Wasn't there a story about her trying to get brands to donate to a baby clothes subscription box service, while she kept all the profits?

I remember that!
Pet boxes are very hot now. Full of goods for your dog or cat. I think they come monthly. I can see her doing that with cosmetics. She could use different spokespeople to do the PR ads and just collect the $. I'm sure she's thought it all out. If there's a buck to be made, she's thought of it. She of course would go with a royal theme.
@Snarky,
Business as usual if they figure she's not as popular as she makes out to be. If I were a lucrative corporation, I wouldn't touch her.
My bet is she'll find yet another moderate, woke company. Wonder what happened to the oak milk schtick?

You lose, I gain 😉
I don’t think it’s a fat suit either, whenever I’ve seen people wear them the fat tends to look like soft padding and not taunt, Maggot’s fat is taunt. Besides why would she wear a fat suit? 🥴
Lady C said her weight gain was due to comfort eating, maybe so. Whatever, it looks very natural to me. 🤔
That’s truly great news about your hubby! May his steady healing progress continue! Sending every good wish and healing vibes. 😀
Similarly, there was a suggestion that bulimia was responsible for the terrible state of her teeth - all that acid coming up and dissolving her pearly white tooty-pegs. Plastic is more resistant.
I've seen the same type of comment at DM.
When the BRF appear in public or there is an official announcement, it comes off sounding so measured. Steady. Anything but quaking in their shoes. And that might be infuriating in its own right (if some part of your goal was to poke the beast).
I think you might be quite right. The Bond red carpet was some releasing of the Kraken.
Good news MsDeb. Thanks for the update.
@Raspberry@WildBoar
What we saw was the real M-Coy…
As for her teeth, like her knees,
well ground, and well wore down 🙀
@GWAH
Her teeth weren’t that good to
start with 😉
@Elsbeth
I reckon the Bond red carpet
golden showered on madams parade.
Kate was sublime!!
Followed by her fuchsia Queen suit,
shade on shade hahaha!
Take care, hope you aren't in those crazy locked-down areas where the police are beating the sh*t out of people.

You’re also gloriously naughty. I now have the Doris Day earworm “Que puta, puta” stuck in my head. Rueful thanks for that.
Cheers!

Thank you for posting the two articles. I found the one from the Santa-Barbara News Press particularly interesting!
The Forbes article is my favorite.
I see Princess Beatrice released the name of her baby. Usual effort to outshine is article about 6's dog out with their dog walker. We have a dog walker. That's all they got 😂😂🤣
/I know, imaginary children don't get walked.

Anyhow, I just want to say that I bet the advertising company isn’t after TBW at all. They probably want the dummy and his posh British accent to do a commercial. Maybe Tetley Tea... Mac’s Milk... Beater’s Used Cars?
I enjoy you all, I just don’t comment much because I’m always so far behind.
(Whether she even actually "has" a baby -- much less two children -- is debatable, of course.)
Now that we know the name of Princess Beatrice's new baby, this puts extra pressure on * to use Baby$2 to grab some attention.
Sienna is a lovely name, but I confess that I had been hoping she would choose Lily. Around the time Baby$2 was supposedly born, there was a rumor that Beatrice had let slip to * that she wanted that name for her first daughter. So when * took "Lilibet," she wasn't just swiping the Queen's beloved nickname, but also Beatrice's desired baby name. And I hoped that Beatrice would completely ignore that and go ahead with the name Lily anyway. (Assuming, of course, the rumor was true!) But now I see that if she had gone with Lily, one sad consequence would have been Baby$2 getting referred to as "Lilibet" more often, to distinguish the two girls. (Many people I know or watch on YouTube compromise by saying "Lili." We couldn't do that to show respect to the Queen if there were another little Lily.)
Just one tiny error though in one of them: the name of the Foreign Office diplomat/intelligence chap in the 2nd article was `Vansittart' not `Vannistat'. The Vansittarts are a `rather grand' family - it's a Dutch name that arrived in England very roughly 300 years ago (I don't know if the original one came over with William III - that's when other Dutch names came to prominence here - the Bentincks, for example.)

I daresay you've seen it but perhaps other Nutties might be interested - do you think there any hope of luring the H$Ms into a bin and disposing of them in a swamp?
No, I thought not!
Apologies if this has been posted. I know nothing about this source just found the story interesting.
From the sounds of Couric's book, she's another megalomaniac like TBW who is so full of herself, she will dish the wrong dirt at the wrong time to her own downfall. What an idiot.
I've never liked her. She has always given me smarmy vibes. But one thing in her favor, she's trashed Harry in print so the gloves are off for her and Megsy. Couric has made a habit of bringing down younger women with rising star potential. So, this is a must for watching...
Neil Sean says that his source at Penguin Random House says that Harry's book proposal was mostly about Harry's time in the military, his mother, and about Charles and Camilla. Not so much about William and nothing critical of the Queen.
Ooooh! Sounds as if he was defanged before he could begin biting.
@Everyone
A focus on his time in the military is actually a really good angle. If I still cared about Harry and what he thought, I might give the book a try. So much has been written about their childhood and their parents' "war" that I'm fatigued reading about it. But his experience with an actual war is a fairly new topic, with the potential to be really interesting. Especially if he were honest about being protected and the "Hero Harry" propaganda. Yes, yes, I know that's not what we'll be getting, though . . .
I also wonder if this was a last-minute change in plans or part of a real strategy. They have been playing up Harry's veteran status for a while (albeit not very regularly). And even they must have figured out that their bread-and-butter of trashing his family was not bringing the expected returns. So maybe they're being serious about new branding. Military Harry and political *.
Didja notice that the people were all shouting advice from a safe distance? (That's always the way, isn't it?) Does this shouted advice from a safe distance happen around the world, or is it a uniquely American thing?
Certain Native American tribes are allowed to eat alligator meat. What is not allowable is to harvest alligators for commercial use of their skins, teeth etc. For food only and some ceremonial use but we don't talk about that.
Whites and non Natives poach. This is what's illegal
Bwahahahaha!
Pardon me, but I, uh, don't see New Yorkers as being sufficiently awe inspired by her presence. They'll be more likely to say things like "Move your fat a** the f*ck out of the way!" instead of worshipping at her feet.
Now, back to 6 and TBW

Thank you!
I was going off your statement:
"Of course the grill thing would be QUITE illegal because we can't simply eat alligators no matter how annoying they are".
So which is it? Illegal in your area or legal?
Or was that meant to engage me?
Poaching, meaning zero licensure for harvesting is not. Natives and First Nations do not have to acquire licenses to hunt certain species on their own lands. Including alligators.
Hope this clears it up.
Meanwhile back to the ranch...
This means the rest of us will be subject to this and the moderators might close down the commments depriving some of us of some entertainment during these bleak days.
I'm not interested in fighting with anyone but thanks for your concern. @SW and I were just discussing in a civil manner.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch 2...
I wonder what nickname Harry was known by at BP that has something to do with Gone With the Wind which Lady C alluded to.
Also, she explains why the Queen and Princess Margaret were always so glamorous in their younger days, even outshining movie stars, but that the BRF isn't like that any longer. I always wondered why the Queen would be seen at the Royal Variety Show in a fur cape and outlandishly beautiful gowns when these days, a $3k dress is considered outrageous for Catherine or others.
Pardon me, but I, uh, don't see New Yorkers as being sufficiently awe inspired by her presence. They'll be more likely to say things like "Move your fat a** the f*ck out of the way!" instead of worshipping at her feet.
The California PR, with its name-dropping of neighbors who wouldn't have invited them over and the fan fiction of "anonymous tech billionaire" friends, was hilarious. Imagine what entertainment the interns will give us if Harry and * move to New York! How about fish tacos with Donna Karan, who hopes to dress * in her latest fashions or Harry being the guest of honor at parties thrown by "anonymous hedge fund billionaires"?
Perhaps, after the latest Bond premiere, there will be more leeway for Catherine and Camilla to glam it up for events. Everyone seemed to enjoy seeing them looking so grand -- and dare I say, expensive. (Well, everyone but * . . .) The wheel of trends may be turning!
We live in very different times as you well know. Glamour is now considered outdated. I myself was very happy to see Catherine and Camilla looking so beautiful. Femininity is now a bad word.
I see people walking around now looking like they just left working in the yard. Tee shirts, shorts, flipflops, hair not done nor face made up. Sloppy is the new norm. I slob out but at home.
I grew up in an era of moms who looked nice when going shopping. I dress office/casual not/gym/yardwork casual when I go on errands. I'm not judging just noticing dress standards have changed drastically over the decades.
Lady C always looks very well put together when she does her videos. I imagine she dresses very well for more formal events or public outings.
This from the grandma who just spent the morning getting her grandgirls' nails done for homecoming tonight. This afternoon working on makeup and hair. Photos at 5pm. :-)
Good on you grandma! Sounds like fun 😀
plus TBW is a SoCal girl, she wouldn’t make it in a 4 season state, she needs California sunshine and home grown avacados and chicken nuggets to thrive.
Is she thinking she can run for Governor or some other political position and they’d be more accepting of her than the the California democratic political machine? After all it worked for it worked for Hilary, and Schumer won’t be around forever…. but neither will Feinstien or Pelosi. She’d have better access to be a talking head on the news/ morning shows if she were in NY….and she could swan around NYC playing at the Royal Tour thing and maybe get lots more papping & publicity. and what about all their zillion dollar media deals? how will they create content, fulfill their current contracts, and get more media contracts if they are away from Cali?
Tears coursed down the cheeks of 16-year-old Meghan Markle and her friends as they watched the funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales, and never more so than at the poignant moment when the cameras zoomed in on the Royal coffin.
There, perched among the white flowers, was an envelope on which was written the one word, ‘Mummy’ – Prince Harry’s last note to the mother who had now gone for ever.
To Meghan and her classmates, it was an inconceivable tragedy: how could a glamorous humanitarian in the prime of life die in the cruel banality of a car crash?
Etc. more examples of TBW's interest in Diana.
But... I thought TBW didn't know anything about the BRF?? She obviously forgets her own lies 🙄
it's called gaslighting. Personally, it angers me when people try to pull the wool over our eyes like that. They think we are stupid and can be manipulated. And when people do it even once, I question anything else that person has to say.
Agreed! We see through them,though!
Not as whip smart as portrayed…the game being played is so transparent and fake.
